Who knew the #Silverdome would be tougher than any of the Lions teams who played in it?

Especially when the Lions have never had a problem imploding.

–

Ole Miss QB Shea Patterson has permission to transfer, possibly to Michigan. Supposedly he wants “stability at offensive coordinator.” Points for not even pretending it’s about academics.

–

Going to be arguments about that 4th CFB playoff spot. But who’d a thunk best team in Florida would turn out to be UCF Golden Knights?

–

Tiger Woods making ESPN golf headlines even for finishing tied for 9th in a tournament with only 18 golfers and no cut. Maybe they’d have better ratings just having a “Best of Tiger’ highlight show each week.

–

Post script to Pac 12 championship: Look, USC was a better team almost all year than Stanford. But if a conference championship really means something, maybe you don’t schedule it on after short week on Friday night?
Of course, given TV and college football maybe they scheduled it Friday because the NFL has Thursday?

–

As we look at all red-state #CFBPlayoff did Senate tax bill making tuition waivers taxable mean football players need to pay tax on scholarships?

So all we need to do to believe Trump, is to believe that CIA, FBI, Justice Department, all the major media except Fox, etc are ALL corrupt and lying.

–

If we didn’t know otherwise sure seems like Trump tweets are calling for the impeachment of President Hillary Clinton.

–

Trump railing against Hillary again, and tweets – “General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed…” Uh, maybe more like Trump’s life will be destroyed.

–

#NYTimes McFarland email “If there is a tit-for-tat escalation Trump will have difficulty improving relations with Russia, which has just thrown USA election to him.” Now Trump admin says that was sarcastic. Right. #Sarcasm

Many Republicans held their noses & voted in 2016. While Democrats bemoan #TaxBill , and yes, there should be standards, it’s maybe a good time for the party going forward for 2018 and 2020 to realize standards are not the same as litmus tests?

Trump’s lawyer John Dowd says he wrote obstruction of justice tweet about knowing Flynn lied. Wait, I thought Trump only hired the best lawyers?

Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley “I think not having the estate tax recognizes the people that are investing as opposed to those that are just spending every darn penny they have, whether it’s on booze or women or movies.”
Yeah, I can understand how the working class voted Republican…. #WTF?
